501X Tekin 6.5 gearing question.
 

Whats the right gearing for the tekin 6.5 on the 501x?

What is the size of your track?

I race indoor (70' x 40') with a (currently) Trinity Duo 8.5 with 87/18 gearing (9.9 FDR).

its an indoor track, hard packed dirt high traction

What spur do you have and what centre pulleys?


James

its the stock spur and pulleys from the worlds edition. I believe 18t pulleys, 91t spur.

A starting point on a 6.5 on a 4WD buggy would be an overall gear ration of about 10.5. Try an 18 or 17 tooth Pinion (10.974 & 10.363 overall ratio respectively) as a starting point.

Will do! I think the kit came with a 17t pinion stock, we'll see how it goes. But thanks man!
